they felt bad been made ininul Chief
Campbell nnjojrtrrv and Dr. Cudlipp
Itiald he felt that but for this criticism
k Chief Campbell would not have lost his
;r.
Dr. Cntrjp..BTeakins; at Graoe Meth
' odlst Church yesterday momlct, said
. In part:
"I suppose we are all proud of Port
, tand. when last Thoraday she so
i beautifully remembered her hero dead.
Bat would It not have been more to
our credit to hare protected his good
name when as yet he lived amonir and
served us I believe the records will
fhow that this brave man exposed
Mraself unduly because of certain crit
icism which questioned his sincerity.
Jlr conviction is that Iavid Campbell
determined to show those who slan
dered Mm that be was still to be
trusted, that be was still of the heroio
stuff. To reach this point, he stepped
lust a little farther than he had
planned. Xm I see It. David Campbell,
like thousands of other brave men,
was drrven to dare those who accused
htm, and it cost his life, just as It has
cost the lives of others."
Dr. ryott. at the First Oongreg-a-tional
Church, said:
Ye make a treat mistake In allow
Ins: such men as Chief Campbell to
pass on through life without giving;
thera the word of good cheer and com
fort which they need. All too often,
while they are livlnir. we have denun
ciation and scandalous words to say.
After they die. we come with inexcus
able excuse for the things we haven't
said.
Xjt. Tonne said, in the morning, at
the Taylor-Street Methodist Church:
"It was in obedience to duty that
Chief Campbell went to his death. In
that disaster Portland has lost a fine
citizen, a brave, big-hearted man, and
one of the finest and beat fire chiefs
that ever wore a uniform. All honor
to his memory.
"Let us write his name lcjrlMy la the

A VEHICLE worthy of the fun-making
proclivities of Ferris Hartman,
comedian. Is "The Toymaker," and al
ways new journey Into the land of
make-believe, which came to the Het
llg last evening, the first of a three
night stay.
The appeal of this quaint story of
the Kurembers; maker of toys Is ap
parently undiminished, and with Mr.
Hartman In the title role, it has Its
greatest charm. It is his spontaneity
and natural propensities for laugh
making that help most to make Mr.
Hartmaa a favorite. When he came
on last evening and begaji to chat In
the Inimitable dialect he affects, he
tm applauded enthusiastically.
There's a good male chorus with Mr.
II art man's organisation the men who
have the roles of the monks. One of
these. Oliver Lenoir, In the character
of Brother Matthew, sings In an un
usually well developed and musical
basso.
Walter De Leon, a light baritone
singer, has the role of Frederick, who
weds the old toymaker's daughter Elsa
under the impression that she Is the
wonderful doll. Mr. Pe Leon manages
to put a deal of comedy Into his lines.
"Muggins Ltavles. a pretty little dam
sel of Dresden china effect In blue and
gold. Is a nice dolly, and merits the at
tention the audience gives her. One
scene in particular Is unique. In this
curtain after curtain raises In succes
sion disclosing life-size dolls In ani
mated movements, revolving on pedes
tals. Another pleas lxur feature was the
Introduction of the two little Hart
mans. Paul and Jo. the former as a
Chinese dolly, and the latter gulsed as
a wee Jap lady doll.
The engagement ends tomorrow
evening. At the matinee tomorrow
afternoon all the little folk are to be
given toys.

POLICEMEN ON DEFENSE
OFFICERS JUSTIFY TESTIMONY
IX COCAINE CASE.
Patrolmen Humphries and O'Dale
Say They Were Deceived Them
selves ty Druggist on Trial.
Prnnfflif IntA an im nl eA9fl n t llht bV
appearing as witnesses for Solomon
Miller, convicted of selling cocaine to
hnir Pntrnlmpn Humohries and O'Dale
have made extended reports to their su
periors, defending their conduct ana re
senting attacks made In court upon
h-i- nrultv. Amonir several witnesses
called by the defense to establish an
alibi for Miller at the time of the sale
of cocaine, the two officers were the
only ones whose Interest in the case
was not apparent.
As the presence, of Miller was estab
lished by four witnesses, while those
testifying to an alibi were an vague
in their recollections of events except
those to which they were prepared to
testify, their evidence was treated with
ridicule by the court, prosecutor and
Jury. Hints were made openly that
there had been great activity prior to
the trial in getting the witnesses "lined
up" properly, and the City Attorney
says that at least one witness was
warned not to appear against Miner.
.T t V. a yl t-.ttfv aa-ain " ftava 7a-
trolman Humphries. H should have to
tell the same story. Miller certainly
was foxy in carrying on that business
without our knowing anything about
it T wntilri testifv aealnst m v own
brother if he were guilty of such a
crime as this.
UnmnhrU, MVfl llA ItPnt hid TIlMlflf

xiMont, visitor jthera. w i
store at 8:30, 9:30 and 10:45 on the
nieht of the alleged sale, and saw Mtl
ler only on the last occasion. O'Dale
was there about 8:45 anil 9:55 and saw
Miller on neither occasion. Both de
clare that they never saw the young
cocaine users who were proved to have
haunted the place.
An Incident at the trial which
aroused the suspicion of City Attorney
Sullivan is explained by Patrolman
Humphries. The officer was seen talk
ing to Miller in the courtroom, but he
exDlalns that Mrs. Miner naa asKea mm
to get from her husband the key of the
store, and that his conversation reiateo
solely to this.
Superior officers express the highest
confidence in both policemen, who have
excellent records In the department.
NEW STORES PREVENTED
Cleveland Druggist Gets Tobacco
Case Decision Brought to Bear.
CLEVELAND, O., July S.-By ap
pealing to the Department of Justice,
Clifton M. Rawlins, druggist, has suc
ceeded in having the recent decision of
the United States Supreme Court In
the tobacco case brought to bear on
the United Cigrar Stores Company, and
the opening of two new stores by that
concern here has been abandoned. This
is said to be the first time the decision
has been put into effect.
Mr. Rawlins pointed out to Attorney-General
Wlckereham that the de
cision stated that the American To
bacco ' Company, or its- subsidiaries,
were not to enlarge their business.
Mr. Wlckersham notified the United
Company that the decision would be
violated in the event the stores were
h an Its rnnnael reDlled that It
would 'abide by the decision and not
open new stores.

Exercise, the Road to Health.
Dr. Woods Hutchinson, in Outing.
We are utterly powerless to Improve
our appetites by a mere effort of the
will, but send the order indirectly by
way of those ever-willing middlemen,
the muscles, and a brisk walk of 40
minutes in the open air will work that
miracle for us. We cannot increase
our lung capacity by merely thinking
blg-chestedly, nor by deep breathing
exercises, or any other foolishness of
that description, but we can readily ex.
nand our chests two or four inches by
a course of proper all-over gymnasium
exercises, by cross-country tramping,
by rowing, wrestling, or playing tennis.

CITV CONSIDERED FOR, WORLD'S
CONFERENCE IX 1913,
Philadelphia Man, Here in Interests
of Christian Citizenship Con,
vention, Impressed.
The World's Christian Citizenship
Convention for Portland In 1913, with
20,000 people in attendance, for eight
days, may be the outcome of a meet
ing today at 12:30 P. M.. at whiclt
Clement H. Congdon, of Philadelphia
general executive agent of the Nation
al Reform Association of Pittsburg,
will meet leading business men of
Portland at the Commercial Club.
Mr. Congdon has the deciding vote
In the selection of a city to get the big
convention, and has been traveling
over the United States In the effort tc
select a meeting place. Leaving Port
land, he will look over the field lr
Tacoma and Seattle, which, with Loa
Angeles and San Francisco, are the
Coast contenders for the meeting.
After seeing the Sound cities, he will
make known his decision.
The amount of money guaranteed by
the city for the expenses of the big
convention will be chiefly exponded for
the advertisement of the city, said Mr,
Congdon, who 1 staying at the Port
land Hotel.
The World's Christian Citizenship)
conference in 1913 will be the second
of its kind, the first having been held
in Philadelphia In 1910. The first con
vention was a trial to see if there were
any demand for a non-denomination
practical conference of clergymen and
laymen upon such problems as white
slavery, child labor, Mormomsm, tha
state of the family, legislation and
practical Christianity. Sixteen coun
tries were represented by 8000 dele
gates at the Philadelphia convention,
and public men from Europe, Asia and
America were among the speakers. The
meeting was so successful that addi
tional conferences up to 190 were
scheduled.
Speaking of the attitude of the peo
pie of Portland toward the convention
Mr. Congdon said: "I am more than
Impressed with the receptlveness ot
the people. The ability of your com
mercial club to give Impetus to the
meeting I consider proved. The appro
priation of $600,000 for the erection oi!
a public auditorium was the best move
that Portland ever made."
